“After almost five years of recording, re-recording, and setbacks Ghost in the Western Trap is finally finished. An album I hold close to my heart. This album is a reflection of lived experience both good and bad presented in an audio format. A testament to life in a fast-paced society where survival is guaranteed not just through the self but through companionship and the cultivation of love. This album is a meditation on love, suffering, companionship, resilience, and empathy”.

About Matt Geary:
The Philadelphia-based musician explores complex ideas through a progressive and experimental approach. Matt Geary entwines post-hardcore musicality and orchestral minimalism in his music to deliver a compelling ambience and vast soundscapes.
